SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This

This process is conducted in accordance

or continuing information collections
pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13; 44 U.S.C.
3507). The comments should address:
(a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s
estimates of the burden of the collection
of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; (d) ways to
minimize the burden, including the use
of automated collection techniques or
the use of other forms of information
technology; and (e) the annual costs to
respondents or record keepers from the
collection of information (total capital/
startup costs and operations and
maintenance costs). The comments that
are submitted will be summarized and
included in the CBP request for OMB

matter of public record. In this
document, CBP is soliciting comments
concerning the following information
collection:

into the United States, such as
underpaid tariffs or duties, or
misclassified merchandise. The
procedure for making a prior disclosure
is set forth in 19 CFR 162.74 which

VerDate Sep<11>2014

in accordance with the Administration’s
commitment to improving service
delivery.
From TSA’s perspective, qualitative
feedback from customers and
stakeholders is information that
provides useful insights on their
perceptions, experiences, opinions, and
expectations regarding TSA products or
services, provides TSA with an early
warning of issues with service, and
focuses attention on areas where
changes regarding communication,
training, or operations might improve
delivery of products or services. These
collections will allow for ongoing,
collaborative, and actionable
communications between TSA and its
customers and stakeholders. They will
also allow feedback to contribute
directly to the improvement of program
management. The solicitation of
feedback will target areas such as:
Timeliness, appropriateness, accuracy
of information, courtesy, efficiency of
service delivery, and resolution of
issues with service delivery. Responses
will be assessed to plan and inform
efforts to improve or maintain the
quality of service offered by TSA. If this
information is not collected, vital
feedback from customers and
stakeholders on TSA’s services will be
unavailable.
As a general matter, information
collections will not result in any new
system of records containing privacy
information and will not ask questions
of a sensitive nature. Information
gathered is intended to be used only
internally for general service
improvement and program management
purposes and is not intended for release
outside of TSA (if released, TSA must
indicate the qualitative nature of the
information). Feedback collected under
this generic clearance provides useful
qualitative information, but it does not
yield data that can be generalized to the
overall population. Qualitative
information is not designed or expected
to yield statistically reliable or
actionable results; it will not be used for
quantitative information collections.
Depending on the degree of influence
the results are likely to have, there may
be future information collection
submissions for other generic
mechanisms that are designed to yield
quantitative results.
Below we provide the Transportation
Security Administration’s projected
average estimates for the next three
years:
Number of Respondents: 7,094,500.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 3,547,250 hours annually.
